Summary

Abstract: This data set consists of blended sea level anomaly from ERS-1
altimeter data and tide gauge data over the Pacific Ocean. Annual and
semiannual signals have been removed, leaving only the interannual
changes relative to the April 1985-86 mean.

The data is from the Joint World Meteorological
Organization/Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Technical
Commision for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM) Products
Bulletin Data Products. The organization was formally known as the
Integrated Global Ocean Services System (IGOSS) Data Products
Bulletin.
